Nothing short of astonishing. The best writers are brave writers, and Harris has proven herself among those ranks. --Mateo Askaripour, New York Times bestselling author of Black Buck
Coming home means risking everything she's built and confronting everything she's survived.
Eight years after surviving a sexual assault, Sara Lancaster has rebuilt her life far from her hometown of Savannah, Georgia. She pours herself into her poetry and her daughter, Alana: a precocious eight-year-old with a brilliant mind and a wild imagination. But when her father suffers a stroke, Sara has no choice but to return to the place that failed her and the people who never believed her story.
Back in Savannah, Sara steps into her father's shoes at his beloved indie bookstore and tries to maintain a low profile. Her only priority is to keep Alana safe--and hidden--from the Wyler family, whose powerful, well-respected son is serving time for Sara's assault. What Sara doesn't expect is to discover that Jacob Wyler--her attacker's identical twin brother and once her teenage crush--has also returned to town, dealing with his own grief and shame. When the two reconnect, Sara and Jacob are drawn together by their shared losses, their love of language and science, and the ache of unresolved questions.
One Summer in Savannah is a powerful debut about confronting trauma, reclaiming agency, and discovering unexpected paths toward forgiveness.
An unforgettable portrayal of familial tragedy, bravery, and redemption. --Kim Michele Richardson, New York Times bestselling author of The Book Woman's Daughter
